Appetizers at Hodges

Chefs, media and special guests began the Cleveland Dine Around at Hodges in downtown Cleveland. The group included editors from beef and ranching publications, food writers and local media, along with guest chefs Howard Kleinberg of Bulldog BBQ in Miami (back, right); Rory Schepisi of Boot Hill Saloon & Grill in Vega, Texas (far right); and Michelle Brown of Jag’s Steak & Seafood of West Chester, Ohio (below, right).

The evening provided opportunities for chefs and media to enjoy and chat about food, trends, and culinary topics.

… and were treated to a glimpse of his original food truck from pre-Food Network fame.

But the best views were food-inspired.

Superb lighting and exquisite dishes provided ample opportunity for foodie photos and commentary. Beautiful, flavorful food tells a great story and that was the goal of the dine around: to shine a spotlight on spectacular cuisine. Then, over the course of the weekend, we took the group backward in the process … to the source.
